Len, you are one of my heros. All of your agenda is part of my beliefs. And your support of Maryland employees’ pensions is a clear voice in the political wilderness.
While I write this I’m reminded that I have yet to make my paultry annual contribution. Please respond with a site I can use to send you money, by bank transfer, credit card or PayPal. I hope others will do the same. Thank You, Karl

I hadn’t even known about this till I read Paul Farhi story in the Post Thursday.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/proposed-fcc-study-of-news-organizations-sparks-conservative-outcry/2014/02/20/117401d8-9a71-11e3-80ac-63a8ba7f7942_story.html

Apparently they’ve back off some, but it still pretty ridiculous use of federal resources.

I do hope the latest ‘news’ regarding FCC ‘monitors’ being sent into “newsrooms” to ensure ‘critical info gets distributed’ (translation: big brother on steroids; foothold for communism; whatever you prefer to call it) will not include MarylandReporter types ?
Does anyone know the ‘extent’ of this planned destruction of our freedoms of speech, press etc. – which is the reincarnation of the mis-named ‘Fairness Doctrine’ ?
